(‘Kimetsu No Yaiba’ Strikes at the Heart of Its Inner Demons)

The popular anime has finally made its way to Netflix. All 26 episodes of its first season are now available on the streaming site. That should be enough to tide you over for at least a day — depending on how much you’re able to binge in one seating.

Kimetsu no Yaiba is an anime series based on the ongoing manga series of the same name. It is serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump and currently has over 200 chapters.

Its story follows Tanjiro Kamado, a young boy who becomes a demon slayer after his family is slaughtered and his younger sister Nezuko is turned into a demon. It chronicles his journey attempting to transform his sister back to human.

While there has been no word on the release of its next season, the following arc is set to be released in the form of a film. Entitled Kimetsu No Yaiba: Infinity Train, the movie tackles the events directly following those of the first season. It is slated to premiere on October 16, 2020.
